What You Should Know About Renal Cyst

Renal Cysts, means that there are some size-different cystic masses without
links with outside. The common renal cysts can be divided into three kinds of
adult Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), Simple Renal Cysts (SRC) and Acquired
Cystic Kidney Disease (ACKD).
PKD is a kind of inheritable renal disease with numerous size-different
cysts in and outside the kidney. It includes two types as Autosome Dominant
Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) and Autosome Recessive Polycystic Kidney
Disease (ARPKD). Among the two types, ADPKD is the common one, and it often
presents the symptoms at grown-ups. ARPKD is the rarely type, and this type’s
patients often die not long after their birth, only extremely small quantity can
survive till the child age even till the grow-ups.

What Does a Septate Exophytic Renal Cyst Mean
SRC means that there is one or several size-different cysts on the kidney,
mostly of the cysts are on one-side. And the morbidity of this disease can grow
along with the increase of the age, and about half of those aged over 50 will be
found out the cysts in a B ultrasonic inspection. SRC is the most common renal
disease. Unless the cysts are very large, generally they do not influence the
renal functions. Whereas, if the cysts are in canceration or it has complication
of renal cancer, then the patients should try to receive a treatment in
time.
ACKD occurs mainly after the treatment of dialysis, and it has nothing to
do with the age, but it is connected with the time of dialysis. According to
some reports, most patients would present cysts if their dialysis time is over 3
years, and moreover, the number of the cysts in their kidney is no less than 4
and the diameter of cysts is about 2~3 centimeters. Besides, some of these cysts
can get infection, even cause cancerization.

Could Kidney Cyst Cause Blockage in Renal Pelvis
Many patients with renal cysts are worrying that whether these cysts can
undergo the process of cancerization, as well as whether they will suffer cancer
once suffering the renal cysts. Generally, these renal cysts are benign tumor,
and will not undergo the cancerization, yet, this explanation still cannot
exclude the possibility of cancerization completely. And moreover, along with
the enlargement of the cysts, the continuous oppression to the surrounding cells
can make the renal function damaged, and at last the kidney will deteriorate
into renal failure or uremia, at that time, the life can be critically
endangered. So, the patients with renal cysts should go and receive a regular
examination in a hospital.
